Just a thought that crossed my mind.

A possibility: I have been accused by the department that I am an unfit mother, and one of the reasons could be because I work full time. I have worked full time through most of the children's upbringing. Does not mean that I haven't been there for them, but I have spent quality time with them, and bought them up to the best of my ability. Financially we have been better off.

When talking to the CPS the other day, they gave me a funny look when they asked about my working full time. Got the impression, they thought it was bad of me.

Trying to support 4 Children, on my Income, let alone pension, is so hard.

If I decided not to work. Missing link (Centrelink) would not grant me a pension, because my daughter is over 12, and they state I have to work, either full time or part time, and if I dont actively look for work I get zilch.

So which ever way I go, I lose!!!
